Scene 11: (A proposition)
Gibbs: [Jackthrows a bucket of water at him] Curse you for breathing, you slack jawed idiot! Mother's love! Jack ! You should know better then to wake a man when he's sleeping. 'S bad luck.
Jack: Ah, fortunately I know how to counter it. The man who did the waking buys, the man who was sleeping, a drink. The man who was sleeping drinks it while listening to a proposition from the man who did the waking.
Gibbs: Aye, that'll about do it. [Willthrows another bucket of water at him] Blast! I'm already awake!
Will: That was for the smell.
Jack: [they enter a tavern; to Will] Keep a sharp eye. [sits at a table with Gibbs]
Gibbs: Now, what's the nature of this venture your'n?
Jack: I'm going after the Black Pearl. [Gibbsalmost chokes on his drink] I know where it's going to be and I'm going to take it.
Gibbs: Jack , it's a fool's errand. Well, you know better than me the tales of the Black Pearl.
Jack: That's why I know what Barbossa is up to… all I need is a crew.
Gibbs: From what I hear tell of Captain Barbossa , he's not a man to suffer fools nor strike a bargain with one.
Jack: Well, then I say it's a very good thing I'm not a fool then, aye?
Gibbs: Prove me wrong. What makes ye think Barbossa will give up his ship to you?
Jack: Let's just say it's a matter of leverage, aye? [nods at Will]
Gibbs: The kid?
Jack: That is the child of Bootstrap Bill Turner. His only child, savvy?
Gibbs: Is he now? Leverage says you, I think I feel a change in the wind says I. I'll find us a crew, there's bound to be some sailors on this rock crazy as you.
Jack: One can only hope. Take what you can… [toasts Gibbs]
Gibbs: [they clink their tankards] …Give nothing back. [drain their drinks]
